I just had the most amazing, relaxing, and beautiful weekend at this lake house! The peaceful lake views, cozy atmosphere, and thoughtful touches made it the perfect getaway. Evenings were magical sitting around the fire pit under the stars, laughing and unwinding with friends. It was everything I needed and more. I truly can’t wait to come back!

This house is amazing! I love the cozy decor and it’s so well maintained- and the activities- Hot tub, ping pong, corn hole, swings- I love the closed in porch- and it’s like the predicted exactly where someone would want to “sit” “lounge” or “eat”

Another wonderful weekend!

We had a wonderful weekend getaway!The location was fantastic, right on the private lake with kayaks to enjoy. The house itself was very comfortable with everything you could ever need--comfy beds and pillows, towels for hot tub, beautiful lake views and an awesome game room for the kids!Wish we could have stayed longer to enjoy everything the house has to offer. Would absolutely love to stay again in the future

Mother’s Day weekend serenity at the lake

Mother day weekend was perfection. House, location, weather we’re a 10. We had an amazing getaway at this hidden gem of a lake house in the beautiful Mongaup Valley, right on Swinging Bridge Lake. The vibes? Total serenity. Think misty mornings over the water, afternoons by the fire pit, with magical sunsets. This house is a prime spots for any bird enthusiasts, between the Blue Herons and the Bald Eagles. The house itself was super clean, spacious, and full of cozy, rustic charm. Big shoutout to the well-stocked kitchen (we cooked up a storm!) and the deck with its killer lake views—perfect for morning coffee or evening grill sessions.On Saturday, we hit some nearby trails and grabbed lunch in Livingston Manor (The Kaatskeller) - such a cute spot!If you're dreaming of a chill lake escape in the Catskills, this place should definitely be on your list. We can’t wait to come back, for a longer stay.

Great Cabin!

We had a wonderful time celebrating my son’s birthday. The cabin is wonderfully equipped and the kids had a great time. Quiet area with loads to experience on the lake. The mid century feeling is a nice touch along with a wonderful extra large couch!

Just awesome!

Everything about this property was great! Communication with the owner, facilities, location, the beauty of the Catskills! We went as a family trip with our adult children and can’t say enough good about it. Lakeside with boats, kayaks, enough room for all the adults, outdoor areas, great location. I would definitely go back. 4 season location too!

Amazing lake front with tons of fun!

The house was perfect for our family (and extended family who rented a neighboring property). Beautiful lake front with dock, kayaks, paddle board meant lots of water time. And when we weren’t in the water - we were eating community meals on the massive deck table or playing ping pong or arcade games in the basement! We will definitely be back !

Wonderful lakefront house

A very nice lakefront house. We enjoyed the water for fishing and with the kayaks/row boat provided. The lake gets kind of rowdy with speed boats and jet skis during the day but quiets down nicely towards the evening. The game room and the hot tub were a nice bonus. Plank Rd is a dead end so makes a nice few miles for a bike ride. Thanks for hosting us. We hope to come back again soon.

Quiet spot with great water access

My husband and I took our 4 kids and one friend (ages 3-12) here for a few days. The water access is great - small/calm enough for the kids to take the kayaks out on their own. The hot tub was nice and the kids enjoyed the game room. It was great to be able to bring our dog too. It was offseason so the area was very quiet. Communication with the host was excellent - super responsive and helpful. The home is definitely older - a lot of original elements and dated in parts but it was clean and well maintained.

Beautiful lake, charming house, fun for all

Our family so enjoyed our vacation at this property. We had different ideas of things to do in the area, but once we settled in, we hardly wanted to leave. The house had a quaint retro vibe which was the perfect place to come back to relax after lake fun filled days in the backyard. We had read that the lake was having some water level and algae issues this season, but it did not us from diving right in. The kids and adults alike enjoyed the paddle boards and kayaks provided by the owners, and even enjoyed swimming in the water. We brought along some tubes and fishing gear which added to the fun! My personal highlight - a quite morning coffee on the deck by the lake. We definitely hope to be back here soon!

Perfect lake house

Fun and relaxing! House is decorated so nicely! Upstairs is just what you would expect from a cozy lake house (nice wood paneling, open floor plan, comfortable living room and clean bedrooms) and the downstairs is perfect for teens (video games, bunk beds, ping pong and private access to hot tub). Lake is peaceful and serene, perfect for using kayaks and paddle board or fishing off the dock. Outdoor dining tables can fit a dozen people easily! Roasting marshmallows by the fire pit is the icing on the cake! Wonderful property!

A perfect weekend!

I invited a bunch of friends for a birthday weekend and we had the absolute best time! The house really lent itself to a great weekend. There was never a dull moment. people were playing video games, ping-pong, or just chilling in the hot tub. And when we were all chilling together, there was more than enough space in the living room for everyone to be comfy. The bedrooms were perfect and fit everyone. Also, all my friends told me that the comforters are super comfy! 10/10 weekend! will be staying here again :)

Lakefront Gem!

The home is spacious and smartly decorated in a mid-century modern style. The extra amenities in this home, such as hot tub, karaoke machine, VR oculus, ping pong table, and arcade/video games, really enhanced our enjoyment. Communication with Craig with great. Visited original Woodstock site, hiked Neversink Gorge, and ate/drank at some really nice local eateries/breweries. The home was immaculately clean and had everything we needed for an enjoyable stay.

Magical

We were so impressed by this property. The setting was magical- no other way to describe it. The home was outfitted with everything a family could want/need and we enjoyed every amenity offered. Communication with the hosts was outstanding and they were so kind to check in on us although we did not find ourselves needing a thing during our stay. Our extended family of 9, ages 3-60+ stay together yearly at different locations and we have never found ourselves in a more comfortable home. Even the beds were comfortable and that’s incredibly important. This is a property you’ll be sad to leave and look forward to visiting year after year.

Great for family too

Booked this home for a surprise 50th bday for my husband- just our immediate family. Had a great time. House was as described. Loved the mid-century feel. Game room was a hit. Loved sitting by the water, the kayaks, evening bonfires. Perfect family spaces. Only set back from our perspective is it was close proximity to other lake houses/rentals. Thought it would be a little more private. Other than that great stay and Craig (property mgr) was super responsive when I reached out. Very professional.

Amazing Celebration

I celebrated what would have been my Dads 80th Birthday. I invited his friends and mine to take part in this celebration. An amazing time was had by everyone. This house was spacious and clean. There were 9 or 10 people at any given time and no one was on top of each other. We took full advantage of the amenities. We fished (I brought a pole) , we used the hot tub, played video games and even ended the night with an amazing fire in the fire pit down by the lake. This is a great house for large families, I promise it will not disappoint. I will be back for sure. Thank you!
